Answer:

d. beta did a better job of explaining the returns than standard deviation

Explanation:

Beta measures the systemic risk associated with the particular investment, it do not compute the total risk associated, which is more  logical.

Standard deviation computes the total risk associated.

Some risk is natural, like the risk of floods, natural calamities, earthquake, etc:

That risk shall not counted as for comparison as that is associated universally. Further, the risk associated with particular factors like bankruptcy of a company, or some legal case issue of a company are precisely described by beta coefficient.

Thus, beta provides better details about explaining the returns.

Nina [5.8K]

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Face value= 100

Coupon= 100*0.05= 5

Yield To Maturity= 0.035

Years to maturity= 5 years

<u>To calculate the price of the bond, we need to use the following formula:</u>

Bond Price​= cupon*{[1 - (1+i)^-n] / i} + [face value/(1+i)^n]

Bond Price​= 5*{[1 - (1.035^-5)] / 0.035} + [100/(1.035^5)]

Bond Price​= 22.57 + 84.2

Bond Price​= 106.77

kozerog [31]

Answer:

The answer is: 74% of its customers carry a credit card the store will accept.

Explanation:

  • Let A denote the event a customer carries American Express credit card (24%)
  • Let V denote the event a customer carries Visa credit card (61%)
  • Let AV denote the event a customer carries both credit cards (11%)

P(A ∪ V) = probability that a customer carries at least one credit card

P(A ∪ V) = P(A) + P(V) − P(AV)

P(A ∪ V) = 0.24 + 0.61 − 0.11 = 0.74
